SD card can be used by connecting your GPS in "Mass Storage Mode",
where you see your SD card mouted as an external storage. You can
simply copy the GPX file to your local machine, and it contains your
trackpoints.

In order to access internal memory / waypoints, connect your device in
the other mode (I do not remember the name right now, and don't have
GPS with me at present), and run gpsbabel command:

gpsbabel -w -i garmin -o gpx -F waypoints_file_name.gpx

This should do the trick. By the way, are you guys on Windows or Linux?

regards,
Nishant
